Close drive to U of A where my son had his internship at. Grocery shopping, food, cat cafe, & Ross near by. Host was great with any & all communication. Cozy and pretty quiet place to stay with a grill, washer, & dryer. TV in upstairs & downstairs areas as well. Will definitely stay here again if I go to Tucson again
